EXUP Worldwide

My plan is to use the EXUP shock and longer dog bones. From what little I know of these progressive linkages, I think it will make the suspension less progressive. <br><br>First, I just wanted to make sure I wasn't going to cause any unanticipated problems -- like creating a <!--EZCODE UNDERLINE STA...

Do changes in shock length change the progressive rate of the shock linkage? I assume (yeah, I know the danger of that...) the shock length won't actually change the ratio, but changes where you are on the curve. <br><br>From reading earlier posts, changing the length of the dogbones causes a change...

On the 88 FZR1000, the bottom rear engine mount is rubber mounted. Looking at the parts manuals, it looks like the later FZR1000 used solid mounts. Same with the FZ750's. <br><br>Any harm in fabricating aluminum bushings to replace the rubber bushings?<br><br>Chris <p></p><i></i>

...so would I have to remove the circlip from the elephant's @$$ to get more flow???? <p></p><i>Edited by: <A HREF=http://p072.ezboard.com/bexupbrotherhoo ... >fj1289</A> at: 7/23/05 5:49 pm<br></i>

Here is a table and description I found on the web. Anyone know if this is a good estimate?<br><br><!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://www.ljsoftware.com/Videos/Dynoje ... i_Jets.htm" target="top">www.ljsoftware.com/Videos/Dynojet_Mikun ... <!--EZCODE LINK END--><br><br> <p></p><i></i>

Mike (mynewbike) <br><br>There are a few couple of ways to do this (based on 1999 R1 forks):<br><br>R1 uses a 22mm front axle and non-standard 60/22 bearings. (By the way, Yamaha parts fiche lists the wrong bearing numer for these applications - they list the standard bearing size 6004. THIS IS WRON...

Steve - I replied in the 87/88 forum - more info in that post. <br><br>87/88 have different front and rear rims than the 89-93 or 95. 87/88 use a different wheel bearing on the front rim than the others. No easy options to adapt the 87/88 rim - there are some ways to solve the problem, but geting a ...

Tim,<br><br>I've got a YZF750 engine for sale. I was getting it ready to take some pics to list on eBay. Drop me an email. (Click on my name - my email address is in my profile)<br><br><br>Chris<br> <p></p><i></i>

NBOT,<br><br>I enjoy this guy's website because he writes about this on the net. I enjoy reading and learning about tuning from anywhere I can get info. But like dragracer said, this is hardly new or original thought - just hyped-up packaging mostly. but he does offer anecdotal evidence - which is o...

Take a good look at this site. Even if you don't build your own, you will understand what is a good design and what isn't and what to look out for.<br><br>Good luck and please post your results! A lot of folks get great info from some really smart people on this board, but they don't give any feed b...

Carbs mix fuel AND air. Most jet kits only change jets related to the fuel circuits. The flo-commander is a way to adjust the air side of the circuit. I imagine it would also "balance" the air to each of the carbs as mentioned. <br><br>I have no experience with flo-commander, but I imagine it will v...

A local independant mechanic let me have a peak inside an FZR1000 with YZF750 head last spring. He said he had to modify the combustion chambers to clear the piston crowns. According to him, the FZR1000 combustion chamber is "flat" where as the YZF750 combustion chamber is more "tent" shaped from le...

John,<br>try this link:<br><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK START--><a href="http://www.fj1200.com/mods/Headlight_Relay_Instr_FJ.pdf">www.fj1200.com/mods/Headl...str_FJ.pdf</a><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK END--><br><br>I did this mod a few years ago.

Again, some experience from the FJ1200 world. On those bikes the stock Yamaha wiring to the headlight is weak even for stock bulbs (I'll bet the FZR wiring is no better - thus the low-wattage bulbs stock). Doing the relay mod will increase the voltage at the bulb - and increase the brightness of eve...

Chuck D,<br><br>I thought the 87/88 had a 15 mm diameter front axle (uses a 6302 bearing) vs a 17 mm axle for the 89-93 (a 6203 bearing). If not, I got some bad poop from the FJ1200 site on Yahoo, and probably passed up some good rims looking for just an 87/88 model. <br><br>What size axle do the 94...

As for Yamaha parts - none that will do you better. An FJ1200 rim '89 and later will bolt up, but it is only 3.0 inches wide. The FJ folks look for th 87/88 FZR front rims to upgrade to a 3.5" rim. <br><br>Maybe you can find a Honda, Suzuki, Kawasaki rim to fit. <br><br>To do some research, try goin...

1. The R1 forks are 50mm at the top - you can't bore out the 87/88 triple clamp that far - there just isn't that much metal!<br><br>2.
